I'm an art teacher originally from New York State and now retired,
living in Florida. For many years I have experimented with several areas
of creativity. Ever since I was a child, I have enjoyed sewing my own
clothes and making designer outfits for my dolls. I love to pick out the
little details that will make my clothing or vintage costumes and hand
painted jeans look unique.
For several years my husband and I
covered arts and entertainment as correspondents for a local newspaper. I
enjoyed participating in special events such as the Menendez Birthday
Festival, which took place in St. Augustine. For that event I dressed in
a 16th century Spanish wardrobe of my own design. I’ve enjoyed the
theater arts so much that eventually I tried out and won parts in four
local productions including “Grease," “Oliver,” "Joseph and the Amazing
Technicolor Dream Coat” and “Cabaret." I worked as a scrapbook
instructor and paper crafting teacher for a year at Michaels, where I
learned many new techniques and used a lot of great new tools! I'm
currently designing scrapbook pages (scrapping photos of my
grandchildren is a great enjoyment), making cards and working on altered
canvas and all kinds of boxes. My art work is for sale locally and has
been published in a few magazine. I received an honorable mention to a
piece I created using an image from Aurora Wings. For the latest stop on
my journey, I take part in designing cards for challenges and belong to
several design teams.

I love working with cute images
and enjoy putting them in scenes. I generally don't use a lot of
embellishments. My focus is on the main image. My go to medium has been
colored pencils, but I just began working with Copic Markers and I am
loving them. I do enjoy trying out new mediums and techniques. Lately I
have been playing with gelatos. Life right now is full and busy
designing and coloring lots of greeting cards.
